Even small gains save lives, and pretending the Democrats are identical to Republicans is disingenuous at best. Don’t be immature, vote. Direct action can happen in parallel, but wasting your influence only enables your enemies. You’d be foolish to think otherwise, and waste time arguing against your own interest.
It’s about systemic incentives, blindly hoping for a change in people’s behaviour is foolish at best. First past the post causes the same issues in every country it still exists today, it clear to see. That’s why most of Europe doesn’t use it, and hasn’t for a long time too. The US has an outdated democracy and we all wish you good luck in convincing others to update it.
It’s better than nothing :/ Until a better form of resolution exists, the unrest is heavily justified.
Nice, been wanting this for awhile!
Batman name is Batman, that is batman name. “Batman”, batman said to batself. “That’s me”. Batman liked batman name.

Re-“mark”-able
A pun about how you can mark it again after erasing ^^
Which country is this in?
Signal as it’s easy to convince others to use it, with a slick onboarding and WhatsApp feel. Matrix is the true future for messaging ofc, but it’s new user experience isn’t friendly enough for mass adoption yet
To play devils advocate, freedom is the ethos of lemmy. Let this instance encourage migration, whilst users are free to access it from any other instance too :)
This is hilarious ngl
There’s also a reliability element too. Nuclear can reliably output a given amount of energy, at the cost of being slow to alter. Many renewable sources have sporadic amounts of power throughout each day. Either is better than fossil fuels at least.
